1 Introduction
Overview
H3C Magic BS200 Switch Series (hereinafter referred to as BS200) are a portfolio of GE
cloud-managed network switches.
The switch, adopting a brand new software and hardware platform, supports one-key switching
among four operating modes (standard switch, port isolation, uplink aggregation, and network clone),
providing an effective response to a variety of complex network environments. The switch, featuring
easy installation and abundant service features, also can be managed and maintained in a unified
manner through a cloud network (cloud + gateway), making it applicable to small and micro
enterprises, commercial chains, hotels, and campuses.
